Strange, I noticed my Hackintosh is showing my CPU as "3.19 GHz Unknown" also now... I could have sworn it showed the name when I first installed it. (High Sierra btw)

I have an update on my Vega 64 upgrade. I purchased a used reference Sapphire Vega 64 (non nitro) from ebay for ~$410 and did some tests with it. The fan speed issues were present at first, but the kext seemed to work pretty well as a fix. Sadly the fan speed does not scale with the increased...

I made the exact build as you last month, and it was a lot easier than I expected it to be! If you stick to those parts and follow the guide everything should go smoothly. :)

I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on the reference Sapphire Vega 64 (non nitro). It seems like the safest bet considering the issues stated above with the Nitro+ and XFX cards. There are some good deals on ebay for used cards, but I assume they've all had crypto mined on them... I wonder if...

Thanks for the response! Do you know the reasoning why the buyers guide only includes the Sapphire NITRO+ Vega 64, and not a reference design?

I've been using my build for about a month now and it's working great! very few issues. However I was thinking about upgrading to a Vega 64 from the RX580 Pulse. Is there any version of the Vega 64 that has been reported to work flawlessly like the RX 580 Pulse does? I noticed some comments...

Worked like a charm. thanks!

I just completed my hackintosh install and everything seemed to go pretty smooth... The only problem I notice is that only half my RAM is recognized (the same as in your original post). You noted that it is no longer an issue but it seems to be affecting me still for some reason.

Thanks for the input! think I'll just go with APFS then. cheers!

I just finished building my PC and will be installing Hackintosh tonight! Do you recommend using HFS+ or APFS for my drive? I'm using a Samsung EVO 960. The improved performance of APFS would be nice, but I've heard a lot of negatives when running it on a hackintosh. Is it safer to just go...

Thanks pastrychef, aussiepilot & others for the help! I decided to go ahead with the build. I will update on how everything goes about a week from now

Would a i7 8700 (non-K) be an identical setup as a i7 8700K? ChaosMokey's post had me a bit worried..

I am about to purchase the parts for this build tomorrow! :) MB: ASUS Rog Strix z370-g Wifi AC CPU: Intel core i7-8700 (non-K) GPU: Sapphire PULSE rx 580 8gb RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 2400 STORAGE: 2x Samsung Evo 960 M.2 500gb I have a few questions: I noticed...
